Calculus is very old, but this is a very new way of presenting it. By taking calculus out of the classroom, we'll demonstrate applications of calculus that would be hard to do in front of a traditional blackboard. And since this is online, you'll be able to interact with the graphs, get instant feedback on your work, and discuss mathematics with others in the forum.
There might be some bumps along the way, but I'm excited to have you partnering with us. And please remember to fill out the Getting to Know You survey: this will provide information for us to tailor the course to you, so you can participate fully and succeed at calculus.
Thank you, ~jim

Calculus One starts Monday
I'm so glad that you're enrolled in Calculus One. It is almost—but not quite—time to begin: you will be able to access the course website starting Monday, January 7, 2013 at
6:00 AM Pacific Standard Time (UTC–8), which is
9:00 AM Eastern Standard Time (UTC–5), which is
1400 UTC.
I'll send you an email on Monday with a link to the content; we've had a lot of fun writing, filming, editing, and programming, and we can't wait until Monday for you to join us on the journey.
Since we have just a few days before the course begins, now is a perfect time to invite your friends to join us, too. If they haven't already enrolled, send your friends tohttps://www.coursera.org/course/calc1 so they can enroll in Calculus One.
